What truly beautiful world We
live in ! Nature gives us grandeur OF
mountains, glens and oceans, and
thousands of means of enjoyment.
We can desire no better when in per-
feet health; but how often do the
majority of people feel like giving it
up disheartened, discouraged and
worn out with disease, when there is
no occasion for this feeling. as every
sufferer can easily obtain satisfacto-
ry proof that GREEN 8 AUGUST Flow
Err will make them free from disease,
as when born. Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint are the direct causes Of
seventy-five per cent of such mala-
dies as Billiousness, Indigestion,
Sick Headache, Costiveness, Nerv-
Gus Prostitution, Dizziness of the
Head, Palpitation of the Heart, and
other distressing symptoms. Three
doses of AUGUST FLOWER will prove
its wonderful effect. Sample bot

On last Monday evening . mas.
meeting of citizens was held al
Metropolitan Hall for the purpose
Of taking steps to secure . desira.
bic site for the new school house,
which is to be built the comina
summer. The attendance was not
as general az it should have been,
less than q hundred persons being
present. The meeting was organ
lied by selecting Hon. 1. I. Lewis
to act as chairman, and T. w. Gil
lette as secretary. The call for the
meeting, stating the object thereof,
was read by the chairman, after
which the following resolutions were
read and adopted, there being only
two votes against the measure.
RESOLVED, That, whereas, Kctchum
School District No 8, has BY its LEGAL voters
decided to issue bonds in the SUM of Si3.
500, and with the proceeds therefrom erect
u brick two-story school building In the
town OF ketchum and, whereas, It is the
sense OF the mass meeting that the public
site for said building, and the use of il for
school purposes will serve the public and
be Of greater advantage to the town than TO
retain it rs Public Square the pres
cnt school house of the district being there.
On therefore be it
RESOLVED, That the public square in the

The use and control Of its Trustees and their
successors in Office, the town OF Ketchum
hereby relinquishing all rightss nd privi-
eges thereto forever.
The proceedings of the meeting
we're ordered to be placed on file in
he records of the county. The To-
cation secured for the erection Of
he building is one of the most de-
'irable in the town being centrally
coated, and will meet with all
necessary requirements. Having a
handsome school building erected
lpon the grounds, the loss of the
public square will be more than
compensated by the great improve
nent made. The unanimity of
ceiling shown in giving to the
chool district the ground for the
is creditable to the people

n the advancement of educational

The reader cannot fail to notice the

Messes. Hunter & Brown in this issue.
These gentlemen are successors to J..
W. Hunter & Bro. They haye moved
into their new house ON main street
and have purchased an unusually
large stock of goods and are now open
ing it. Mr.. J w. Hunter has been in
tn mercantile business for thirteen
years and understands his business
thoroughly, as all who deal with him
can testify. He climbed the ladder of
business slowly, perhaps, but success
fully, and holds the position he has
attained, now almost at the top, by
merit alone. 1t is pleasure for us to
note the success he has met with and
bespeak for the new firm share OF
the public patronage. Mr.. Brown is
from Carter county, and while he will
not stay here himself, he is a valuable
addition to the firm. This notice
would be incomplete were we to fail to
peak of their millinery and dress
making departments. They are COM
plete and are in charge of two compe-
tent ladies. Miss Boice, formerly OF
New York state, has already arrived
and a second lady from Baltimore is
expected next week, when both de-
partments will be formerly opened for
business.
